I said, years ago, that the Muslims and Catholics would begin working together.
I didn't have a dozen news stories to back up my theory in an age where that amounts to credibility.
This is what happens. Short of all out war, like is what's really going on all over the world between the Faiths, the two come together and forge something new.
Two questions...

Hi. I believe that Islam is a religion of political ideology, and that is the problem.
When Muhammad reached Medina, he became a warlord and his words became much more political - Hadith, roughly speaking.
There are individuals and groups who are working on the reform and modernisation of Islam. I sincerely hope they will succeed so that Muslims can integrate with other religions and cultures.
That would be epic.
It would have been disaster . There is a long list of false prophets who led Israel to destruction and exile .
